Gwynedd Valley, Pa. – (1/20/2024) – Gwynedd Mercy University (10-8, 3-2) trailed Immaculata University (8-10, 1-4) in the early-going of today's Atlantic East Conference (AEC) contest by as many as six points, 11-5 (15:06), but the Griffins took the lead on a tough layup from freshman guard Mazen Sayed (Chichester, Pa.) (18-16, 9:35), led 33-21 (0:58) at halftime, and played the second half with the game never truly in jeopardy for a 74-58 league victory over the Mighty Macs.
